How to add a custom icon in mapbox?
var map = L.mapbox.map('map', 'mapbox.streets').setView([0, 0], 1);
var geojson = { type: 'LineString', coordinates: value};
var start = value[0];
var end = value[value.length-1];
geojson.coordinates.push((start,end).slice());
// Add this generated geojson object to the map.
L.geoJson(geojson).addTo(map);
// Create a marker and add it to the map.
var marker = L.marker(end, {
icon: L.mapbox.marker.icon({
"iconUrl": "https://www.mapbox.com/mapbox.js/assets/images/astronaut2.png"
})
}).addTo(map);
});
I can't able to add a custom icon in above code. Please help me..
Thanks.
First you will have to create a var, for example 'myIcon', then simply replace the iconUrl with a path that specifies the custom marker you want to use.
You can use the iconSize option to specify the size of your marker
You can use the iconAnchor option to specify which part of your masker should be placed on the latlng.
myIcon=L.icon({
iconUrl:'img/custom-marker.png',
iconSize: [25,30]
});
Then create the marker, set the lat lng where you want your marker to be placed. And specify the icon you want to use.
var Marker = new L.Marker ( latlng, {icon:myIcon});
Finally add your market to the map:
map.addlayer(Marker);

Hello everyone I have some problems its about the current positionmarker in my leaflet its supposed to update every 3 second and it does but it everytime it puts a new "position" marker on the map and the old one stays how can i fix this?
L.tileLayer('https://api.mapbox.com/styles/v1/{id}/tiles/{z}/{x}/{y}?access_token={accessToken}', {
attribution: '© Leaflet 2021',
tileSize: 512,
zoomOffset: -1,
id: 'mapbox/streets-v11',
accessToken: '######'
}).addTo(map);
var greenIcon = L.icon({
iconUrl: 'person.png',
iconSize: [35, 35], // size of the icon // the same for the shadow
popupAnchor: [0, -20] // point from which the popup should open relative to the iconAnchor
});
// placeholders for the L.marker and L.circle representing user's current position and accuracy
var current_position, current_accuracy;
function onLocationFound(e) {
var radius = e.accuracy / 2;
var marker;
L.marker(e.latlng, {icon: greenIcon}).addTo(map)
}
// wrap map.locate in a function
function locate() {
map.locate({setView: true, maxZoom: 15});
}
map.on('locationfound', onLocationFound);
// call locate every 3 seconds... forever
setInterval(locate, 3000);
An efficient way to fix this is to keep a reference to the marker you create, so that you can update its position rather than creating a new marker each time you get a location update. The reference needs to be held in a variable that is outside your callback function, but in scope when the callback is created.
For instance, your callback can check whether the marker already exists, and either create it and attach it to the map object for easy re-use, or just update its coordinates if it is already there:
function onLocationFound(e) {
var radius = e.accuracy / 2;
if (map._here_marker) {
// Update the marker if it already exists.
map._here_marker.setLatLng(e.latlng);
} else {
// Create a new marker and add it to the map
map._here_marker = L.marker(e.latlng, {icon: greenIcon}).addTo(map);
}
}
Having this reference will also let you edit the marker from other functions, e.g. to change the icon or popup, hide it from view, etc.
You can do it, for example, in the following way.
Add an ID (customId) to the marker:
const marker = L.marker([lng, lat], {
id: customId
});
And when you add a new marker remove the existing one with the code below:
map.eachLayer(function(layer) {
if (layer.options && layer.options.pane === "markerPane") {
if (layer.options.id !== customId) {
map.removeLayer(layer);
}
}
});
I have a marker in my leaflet map like
marker = new L.Marker([lat,lon],{icon:flagIcon,title: "Drage me to change your location"}).addTo(map);
marker.dragging.enable();
marker.on('dragend', function(e){
var coords = e.target.getLatLng();
var lat = coords.lat;
var lon = coords.lng;
console.log("Lat : "+lat+" Lng: "+lon);
document.getElementById("lat").value=lat;
document.getElementById("long").value=lon;
document.getElementById("placeName").value="location on map";
updateAnchor();
map.panTo({lon:lon,lat:lat})
if(flag!=0){
map.removeLayer(cir);
cir = L.circle([lat,lon],circleOptions).addTo(map);
refreshMarkers(flag);
}
});
If the marker is already exist i want to remove it and and a new one.For that i added a code like
if (marker) {
map.removeLayer(marker); // remove
}
But i couldn't remove the older marker.How to solve this issue
The marker you're adding isn't the same object as the marker that's already on the map. If you want to be able to reference (eg to remove) a marker later, save a copy of the marker object in a global.
var oldmarker;
marker = <your code here>
oldmarker = marker;
Then
if (map.hasLayer(oldmarker)) {
map.removeLayer(oldmarker);
}
Try:
if (map.hasLayer(marker)) {
map.removeLayer(marker); // remove
}
If this is not helping pls add more code to your question, when do you want to remove the marker and how you add the new one
Original-markerIcon = leaflet/images/marker-icon-2x.png
current-markerIcon = leaflet/images/map-marker.png
I have many markers and I want to change marker icon of the current clicked marker.If I click again on another marker change all marker Icon to original marker and current marker with current Icon.
I also have label attached with each marker.
When I click on current Icon I want to change also the label of that marker or remove the label.
How can I achieve this ?
thank you.

EDIT-1
L.Icon.Change = L.Icon.Default.extend({
options: {
iconUrl: 'leaflet/images/map-marker.png',
iconSize: new L.Point(150, 75),
}
});
var changeIcon = new L.Icon.Change();
L.Icon.Original = L.Icon.Default.extend({
options: {
iconUrl: 'leaflet/images/marker-icon-2x.png',
iconSize: new L.Point(45, 81),
}
});
var originalIcon = new L.Icon.Original();
marker.on('click',function(e){
for(var i = 0 ; i < $scope.markers.length ; i++){
$scope.markers[i].setIcon(originalIcon);
}
})
// marker click event to show the center pano
$scope.markers[index].on('click',function(e){
$scope.markers[index].setIcon(changeIcon);
});
If i am not mistaking there is a function named as "eachLayer" in map. I think when you create a marker, leaflet gives an automatic ID for that. So you have to give that ID in "eachLayer" function. And when it finds appropriate marker, there should be a function "popupclose". To add it will be better if you show your code...!
i have a map with some walking- and bike-routes and popups with a few details an a pic. Now i want to set a marker on the first vertex of a geojson polyline, but i cant find out how. Btw. i´m new to leaflet/mapbox, and i put my map togehter from code snippets.
Here is the map now:
This is how i create the polylines now. I call them via layercontrol.
var mtb = L.geoJson(radjs, {
filter: function (feature, layer) {
if (feature.properties) {
// If the property "underConstruction" exists and is true, return false (don't render features under construction)
return feature.properties.typ === 'mtb';
}
return true;
},
style: {
"color": '#6699cc',
dashArray: '',
"weight": 4,
"opacity": 0.6
}, onEachFeature: onEachFeature2}).addTo(rad);
Thank you for your help,
Marc
You could just add a Feature to your geojson with the latitude and longitude like the do it in the Leaflet GeoJSON Example.
Probably it will be more convenient to read the geometry.coordinates from geojson features and define a new marker.
Beside you have an error on line 569. You should change:
var map = L.mapbox.map('map','',{
to:
var map = L.mapbox.map('map',null,{
Create a simple marker object and add it to the map.
marker = L.marker([0, 0], {
icon: L.mapbox.marker.icon()
}).addTo(map)
Then set the latitude and longitude to the first coordinates of your geoJSON. Assuming your geoJSON is set to the var geojson, you can access the coordinates by indexing into the array.
marker.setLatLng(L.latLng(
geojson.coordinates[0][1],
geojson.coordinates[0][0]))
I am creating a map page with a single image,
and I would like to use GeoLocation to show where the user is as a blue dot (somewhat like iOS maps).
I already have the JavaScript for finding the location, and it works great.
I just need help with how to place a marker - just a simple image - on the page according to the output of position.coords.latitude and position.coords.longitude.
Is there any way that this can be done, and if so, how?
Thanks in advance.
You can simply use GMarker in your javascript, something like this:
var myLatlng = new google.maps.LatLng(-25.363882,131.044922);
var mapOptions = {
zoom: 4,
center: myLatlng,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
}
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), mapOptions);
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: myLatlng,
map: map,
title:"Hello World!"
});
You can customize its image like that:
var image = 'beachflag.png';
marker.icon = image;
